contiiiue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from wlien th¢ financial statein¢nts are

statenients or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we

whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the

Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free
from material misstateinent, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors
that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an
audit conducted in accordance with ISAS (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.
Misstateineiits Can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate,
they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these
financial statemeiits.
The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below..
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design
procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to dete¢t Inaterial misstatements in respect of
irregularities, including fraud. Jn particular, we looked at wliere Inanagement made subjective judgements,
for example in respect of accounting estimates that involved making assumptions and considering future
events that are inherently uncertain. We also considered potential financial or other pressures, opportunity
and motivations for fraud. As part of this discussion, we identified the iiiternal controls established to
mitigate risks related to fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations and how manageinent moiiitor
these processes. Appropriate procedures included the review and testing of manual journals and key
estimates and judgements inade by inanagement for risk of fraud.
Based on our understanding of the company and industry, we identified the principal risks of
non-compliance with laws and regulations as those that have a direct impact on the determination of material
amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
We evaluated management's incentives and opportunities for fraiidulent manipulation of the financial
stateineiits and identified the greatest potential for fraud. We communicated the identified laws and
regulations throughout the audit team and remained alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout
the audit. Audit procedures performed included, but were not liinited to:
Discussions with Inanagement including consideration of known or suspected instances of
non-compliance with laws and r¢gulation and fraud.
Reviewing th¢ financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation.
Review of board meeting minutes of those charged with governance"
In addressing the risk of fraud through management override of controls. testing the appropriateness of
journal entries and other adjustm¢nts'
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAS (UK), we exercise professional judgment and maintain
professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:_
Jd¢ntify and assess the risks of material misstat¢ment of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or
error. design and perforin audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit ¢vid¢nce that is
sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material
misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion.
forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveii¢ss of the
charities internal control.

Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and
related disclosures inade by the trustees.
Perform analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of
material misstatement due to fraud or error.
Conclude on the appropriateness of the trustees, use of the goiiig concern basis of accounting and based on
the audit evidence obtained, whether a Inaterial uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may
cast significant doubt oil the cliarities ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a Inaterial
uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the
financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opiiiion. Our conclusions are based
on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions
may cause the charity to cease to continue as a going concern.
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure, and content of the financial statements, includ ing the disclosures
and whether the financial stateinents represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that
achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other Inatters, tlie planned scope
and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including significant deficiencies in internal control
that we identify during our audit.

been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of
Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the
Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland issued in 2019 the
Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102),
the Charities Act (Northern Ireland) 2013, the Companies Act 2006 and UK Generally Accepted
Practice.
The finaiicial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention,
Inodified to include certain items at fair value. The financial statements are presented in sterling
which is the functional currency of the charity.
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out
below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.
(b) Funds
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general
objectives of the cliarity and which have not beeii designated for other purposes.
Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the trustees for particular
purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by
doiiors or which have been raised by the charity for particular purposes. The cost of raising and
administering such funds are charged against the sp¢cific fund. The aim and use of each restricted
fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Furth¢r explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial
statements.
(¢) Income recognition
All incoming resources ar¢ included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when the charity
is legally entitled to the income after any performance conditioiis have been mct, the amount can be
measured reliably and it is probable that the income will be received.
For donations to be recognised the charity will have been notified of the ainounts and the settlement
date in writing. If ther¢ ar¢ condltions attached to the donation and this requires a level of
performance before entitlement can be obtained then income is deferred until those conditions are
fully met or tlie fulfilment of those Conditions is within the control of the charity and it is probabl¢
that they will be fulfilled.Voluntary income is received by way of grants, donations and gifts and is
included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) wheii receivable. Income received
from collections is recognised when received.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES- continued
Basis of preparing the financial statements
Donated facilities and donated professional services are recognised in income at their fair value wheii
their economic benefit is probable, it can be measured reliably and the charity has control over the
item. Fair value is determined on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity. For example the
amount the charity would be willing to pay in the open market for such facilities and services. A
correspoiiding amount is recognised in expenditure.
No amount is included in the financial statements for volunteer time in line with the SORP (FRS 102).
Further detail is given in the Trustees, Annual Report.
For legacies, entitlement is the earlier of the charity being notified of an impending distribution or the
legacy being received. At this point income is recognised. On occasion legacies will be notified to the
charity however it is not possible to measure the amount expected to be distributed. On these
occasions, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset and disclosed.
Income from trading activities includes income earned from fundraising events and trading activities
to raise funds for the charity. Income is received in exchange for supplying goods and services in
order to raise funds and is recognised when entitleinent lias occurred.
The charity receives govcrnment grants which are detailed within the notes to these financial
statements. Incoine froin goveriiment and other grants are recognised at fair value when the charity
has entitlement after aiiy performance conditions have beeii met, it is probable that the income will be
received and the ainount can be measured reliably. If entitlement is not met then these amounts are
d¢f¢rred.
(D) Expenditiure recognition
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis, incliisive of VAT which cannot be recovered
and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Expenditure is
recognised where there is a legal or constructive obligation to make payments to tliird parties, it is
probable that the settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured
reliably. It is categorised under the following headings:
Costs of raising funds iiiclud¢s the costs associated with attracting voluntary incomes.
Expenditure on charitable activities includes those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its
activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such
activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them. and
Other expenditure represents those items not falling into the categories above.
Irr¢cov¢rable VAT is charged as an expens¢ against the activity for which expenditure arose.
Grants payable to third parties are within the charitable objectives. Where unconditional grants are
offered, this is accrued as soon as the recipient is notified of the grant, as this gives rise to a
reasonable expectation that the recipient will re¢¢ive the grants. Where grants are conditional relating
to perfomiance then the grant is only accrued when any unfulfilled conditions are outside of the
control of the charity.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Basis of preparing the financial statements
Support costs are those that assist the work of the charity but do not directly represent charitable
activities and include o￿lee costs, governance costs, administrative payroll costs. They are incurred
directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the charity and include project management
carried out at Headquarters. Wliere support costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headiiigs
they have been allocated to cost of raising funds aiid expenditure on charitable activities on a basis
consistent with use of the resources. Premises overheads have been allocated on an insert detail basis
and other overheads have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Fund-raising costs are those incurred in seeking voluntary contributions and do not include the costs
of disseminating information in support of the charitable activities.
(O Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment
losses. Cost includes costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as intended.
Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets, at rates calculated to write off th¢ cost, less
estimated residual value, of each asset on a systematic basis over its expected useful life as follows:
Buildings
I 00/0 Straiglit Line
Equipment 250/0 Straight Line
(g) Financial Instruments
A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the charity becomes a party to the
contractual provision of the instrument.
Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the amounts receivable or payable including any
related transaction costs.
Current assets and current liabilities are subsequently measur¢d at the cash or other consideration
expected to be paid or relived and not discounted.
Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost.
Where investmeiits in shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwise be measured
reliably, the investment is subsequently measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognised
in income and expenditure. All other such investments are subsequently measured at cost less
impairment.
Other financial instruments, including derivatives, are initially r¢cognised at fair value, unless
payment for an asset is deferred beyond normal business terms or financed at a rate of interest that is
not a market rate, in which case the asset is measured at the present value of the future payments
discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.
Other financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value with any changes recognised in
the stateinent of financial activities, with the exception of hedglng instruments in a designed hedging
relationship.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Basis of preparing the finaneial statements
Financial assets that are measured at cost or amortised Cost are reviewed for objective evidence of
impairment at the end of each reporting date. if there is objective evidence of impairment an
impairment loss is recognised under the appropriate heading in the statement of financial activities in
which the initial gain is recognised.
For all equity instruments regardless of significance, and other financial assets that are individually
significant, these are assessed individually for impairment. Other financial assets are either assessed
individually or grouped on the basis of similar credit risk characteristics.
Any reversals of impairment are recognised immediately, to the extent that the reversal does not result
in a carrying amount of the finaiicial asset that exceeds what the carrying amount would have been
had the impairment not previously been recognised.
(h) Impairment
Assets not measured at fair value are reviewed for any indication that the ass¢t may be impaired at
each balance sheet date. If such indication exists, tlie recoverable ainount of the asset, or the asset's
cash generating unit, is estiinated and compared to the carrying amount. Where the carrying amount
exceeds its recoverable amount, an iinpairinent loss is recognised in profit or loss unless the asset is
carried at a revalued amount where the impairment loss is a revaluation decrease.
(i) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the charity has an obligation at the balance sheet date as a result of a
past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the
amount can be reliably estimated.
(i) Leases
Assets acquired under finance leases are Capitalised and depreciated over the shorter of the lease term
and the expcct¢d useful life of the ass¢t. Minimum lease payments are apportioned between the
finance charge and the reduction of the outstaiiding lease liability usiiig the effective interest method.
The related obligations, net of future finance charges, are included in creditors.
Rentals payable and receivable under operating leases are charged to the SOFA on a straight line basis
over the period of the lease.
{k) Tax
No provision is required for taxation as the coinpany is defined as a cliarity for taxation purposes.
The charity is a registered charity and so sucli is entitled to certain tax exemptions on income and
profits from investments and surpluses on any trading activities carried on in furtherance of tli¢
charity's primary objectives, if these profits and surpluses are applied solely for charitable purposes.

Notes to the Financial Stalements - continued

ACCOUNTING POLICIES- continued
Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no
material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected
level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statemeiits. The
budgeted incoine and expenditure is sutricient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to
continue as a going concern.
(m) Accounting estimates and areas of judgement
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgeinents, estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgetnents are continually
reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that
are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
The iteins in the financial statements where these judgements and estiinates have been made include:
(i) estimating the useful economic life of tangible fixed assets
(li) property valuation
(iii) allocation of expenditure and support costs
Taxation
The charity is exempt froin corporation tax on its charitable activities.
Fund accountlng
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the
trustees.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity.
Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted
purposes.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial
statements.
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The charitable company operates a defiii¢d contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to
th¢ charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Finaiicial Activities in the
period to which they relate.
